This popped in my head, had to be written. Thank God mine aren't dead. A little sick at times, but not dead...LOL


Poem Artwork

... You waited too long to bring them in
here.  Look at them:  they're ... dead.
Cold.  Blue.  Lifeless.  If you had just
brought them in sooner, might have had
a chance to save them.  As it is, they
were dead when they hit the page ...
bastards probably don't know what hit
them.  Time:  4:39 PM.  Someone please
call the morgue, notify the next of kin .....

LOve it! Very funny. Clean up? Atopsy; here it goes: Cut "might have had a chance to save them", and add an elipsis, let the reader's imagination say that instead. Also, maybe a "but" instead of "As it is", "but" is less wordy, but "As it is" is more colorful.--either choice is good-- And change "dont" to "didn't", it's more gramatically correct. --Love the cute little thing. Good luck! --Charlie

Aha Karla we all have a few dead thoughts but look out when they come to life just as they hit the paper and not the waste basket morgue. Thank you for sharing.

Newfie hugs are on the way, Rose

Dead thoughts...got a few of them, never called the morgue just the local banging-dust-bins-at-ungodly-hours man.

As I read this, I am reminded how sometimes what I write is dead before it gets to the page. There is no inspiration, just ramblings. On another note, it also reminded me that our health care system often only takes effect when you pay, pay, pay - then it's too late.

God bless you. Kathy

Certainly is a very sad state of affairs and does not say much for the kind of care this government offers either....

Be safe,

I know those who work with the dead are a compassionate lot. I know I could never do it. I'd cry and take it all home with me.
Love,

Glad your muse or words haven't suffered a "Code: Blue!" That would be a tragedy, indeed. Yes. We need to read your words; you are a gifted poetess! Keep on writing; don't ever stop! As long as you write, there are people who will read/review you, me included. I love how you write!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin sister, Karen Lynn. :D

Nooo, not sick, as i have heard by many that in America some people who are dying, do not get treated until their insurance is shown.
I have no idea if this is true, it can't be, however when i was in texas i had to prove my payment with the spider bite treatment...

I even heard that pregnant women have to pay to give birth, and what's worse is that the paramedics cost, i'm prolly wrong. I can't believe america is diffo to here, where all medical help is free, from cancer, to just a broken leg, as well as the paramedics..

reason this hit me is because no paramedic van, country wide, should take longer than 20 mins to get to an incident of any kind.…


Though we hear Hilary Clinton wants the same kind of health service that we have....
